Name | SPAG16 |
---|---|
Synonyms | PF20 |
Function | Necessary for sperm flagellar function. Plays a role in motile ciliogenesis. May help to recruit STK36 to the cilium or apical surface of the cell to initiate subsequent steps of construction of the central pair apparatus of motile cilia (By similarity). |
Cellular Location | Cytoplasm {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q8K450}. Cytoplasm, cytoskeleton, flagellum axoneme {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q8K450}. Cytoplasm, cytoskeleton, cilium axoneme {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q8K450}. Cell projection, cilium, flagellum {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q8K450}. Note=Detected on the sperm flagellum axoneme. Detected in the central apparatus of the axoneme. Colocalizes with SPAG6 on microtubules (By similarity) {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q8K450} |
Tissue Location | Isoform 1 is detected in testis. Isoform 4 is detected in testis and brain, and at lower levels in kidney, heart, pancreas, thyroid, ovary, adrenal gland, spinal cord, trachea and liver. |
